Answer 6

Sorry, but your friend is right, turtles are reptiles. However, you would be correct to say (many) turtles are "amphibious", (the ability to live on land and water. Most water turtles can travel many miles over land. Sea turtles not included. So, you are correct in describing them as amphibious (adjective) while he is correct in calling them reptiles (noun). Amphibians are toads, frogs, newts, and salamanders.

BTW. You did spell amphibian correctly.
